Welcome to my website. I am the Director of MOVE, Associate Professor of Economics (with tenure) at Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona,
and Affiliated Professor at the Barcelona GSE. I graduated from CEMFI in 2011.

I am an External Fellow at CReAM (UCL), Guest Editor for a Special Issue on "Economics of Migration:
Labour Market Impacts and Migration Policies" of Labour Economics, the Journal of the European Association
of Labour Economists, and Associate Editor of SERIEs --- The Journal of the Spanish Economic Association.

I have recently been awarded a European Research Council (ERC) Starting Grant for my project
"Dynamic Modeling of Labor Market Mobility and Human Capital Accumulation (DYMOLAMO)".
More details about it and some media coverage is availabe in the media page. Here

research focuses on immigration, internal migration, occupational mobility, inequality, human capital accumulation,
technological progress, and frictions. This cloud summarizes the most frequent words I use in (some of) my papers:
